Spanish Priest with Ebola Has Died

Where is WHO when these doctors are in critical need of such a basic thing as PPE when they are dealing with a disease of this nature?
Just what is WHO for if they can't help in this matter?

I think this was why they asked for 200 million dollars

the Spanish priest was given ZMapp but the med (antibodies atrificial) could not help him, so why United Nations approve making such meds immediately after the priest dies???
going the wrong direction.
where is the un leading the world ?

he took the medicine ZMAPP and it did not help so he died so after he died by few hours the UN declared they propose making these drugs that failed to help the priest. Dr Bently took blood from a survivor, and that is why he survived, not because of ZMAPP other wise the Spanish priest would have recovered with ZMAPP too!!

Because no matter how well a drugs works there will be a cut off point were you are too far gone!

Zmapp may very well have began to clear the viruses out his system but if they had already caused multi organ failure then there not much any medication can do.

Also with a lot of medications, they don't always work for everyone.

It wasn't a cure , just a treatment. It does not work on all. It just seemed to help the Atlanta patients, so it was tried on him. He was too far gone and much older

Let's all be clear, we really do not know who got what drugs.
